  2. Gamow factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamow_factor

    Gamow [3] first solved the one-dimensional case of quantum tunneling using the WKB approximation.Considering a wave function of a particle of mass m, we take area 1 to be where a wave is emitted, area 2 the potential barrier which has height V and width l (at < <), and area 3 its other side, where the wave is arriving, partly transmitted and partly reflected.

  3. Cyclic voltammetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_voltammetry

    The effect of increasing the scan rate can be used to measure the rate of interfacial electron transfer and/or the rates of reactions that are coupltransfer. This technique has been useful to study redox proteins, some of which readily adsorb on various electrode materials, but the theory for biological and non-biological redox molecules is the ...

  4. George Gamow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Gamow

    Before his interest turned to the question of the genetic code, Gamow published about twenty papers on cosmology. The earliest was in 1939 with Edward Teller on galaxy formation, [22] followed in 1946 by the first description of cosmic nucleosynthesis. He also wrote many popular articles as well as academic textbooks on this and other subjects ...

  5. Linear sweep voltammetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_sweep_voltammetry

    The slope of the potential vs. time graph is called the scan rate and can range from mV/s to 1,000,000 V/s. [3] The working electrode is one of the electrodes at which the oxidation/reduction reactions occur—the processes that occur at this electrode are the ones being monitored. The auxiliary electrode (or counter electrode) is the one at ...

  6. Randles–Sevcik equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randles–Sevcik_equation

    In electrochemistry, the Randles–Ševčík equation describes the effect of scan rate on the peak current (i p) for a cyclic voltammetry experiment. For simple redox events where the reaction is electrochemically reversible, and the products and reactants are both soluble, such as the ferrocene/ferrocenium couple, i p depends not only on the concentration and diffusional properties of the ...

  7. Piezoelectric sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezoelectric_sensor

    Figure 3. In the flat region, the sensor can be modeled as a voltage source in series with the sensor's capacitance or a charge source in parallel with the capacitance. Piezo sensors typically use the flat region of the frequency response (the "usable region" in Figure 1) between the high-pass cutoff and the resonant peak.

  8. Pycnonuclear fusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pycnonuclear_fusion

    Pycnonuclear fusion (Ancient Greek: πυκνός, romanized: pyknós, lit. 'dense, compact, thick') is a type of nuclear fusion reaction which occurs due to zero-point oscillations of nuclei around their equilibrium point bound in their crystal lattice.

  9. Reaction progress kinetic analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reaction_progress_kinetic...

    c) The rate of reaction progress (product formation) is monitored over time by methods such as reaction progress calorimetry or may be obtained by taking the first derivative of (a). d) Describing the rate of reaction progress with respect to consumption of starting material spreads the data into a more informative distribution than observed in ...
